Still waiting to pick up my car. It was supposed to be a 6 working day wait for the compliance plate and has been 8 so far!

Ahh man I had this crap with them also. Ended up taking almost 3 weeks for me. Hope it's faster for you.

6 days? Sure he didnt say 6 weeks?

I was told 3 weeks and took 5 or 6. Took longer because of a long weekend. 6 days sounds optimistic especially with easter coming.

It didn't bother me because I had to sell my old car, ended up selling 2 weeks before I picked up the car.

I hope it's not 3 weeks! I haven't paid for the car yet so if he wants this bank cheque it's in his best interest to get it ready..

They told me 6 weeks to get me one from Japan but 6 days to have the one in the yard complied.

I don't NEED it immediately but I'm keen to start fiddling around with it as soon as possible, my new hobby.

If anyone has any ideas on how I can get my money back and out of my contract I will drive over and buy this car immediately???? HELP!

ring him and tell him if he doesnt return your deposit you will dob him into the authorities for complience issues. ie not changing tyres until you called him out on it. Im sure he will not want that coming down on him.

I'd walk away from $1000 to buy Chris's car.

You would have to spend at least another $10,000-$15,000 (I would bet that would be the tip of the iceberg) to have the work done in the manner it has been done to his car.

You are right...I bought Chris's car this afternoon. Picking up tomorrow.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
